New album: Martez "Shadow Work"

The second in a series of works initiated in the beginning of the pandemic to sonify the overwhelming feeling of loss. Let the grief wash over you.

New Music: Martez - Lamentos

A new album very unlike any of my others- minimalist instrumental sonification of various moods, feelings and moments of the first eighteen months of the pandemic reality. Recorded in Oakland, CA.

New Music: Ocote Soul Sounds "Sal Si Puedes"

“Get out if you can”, is the best translation. A lot of things to get out of, a lot of things to get into. I wrote this and played the instruments, drums, bass, clarinets, flute, saxophones. My inspirations on this were Yusuf Lateef, Cymande, and RZA. Enjoy the vibe, and stay safe.

Screenplays

I just finished my second feature length screenplay. I’m editing both now and will soon share synopses. This has been challenging but also liberating.
